New cleaning products increase user safety

Electrolube has launched a range of new, non-flammable cleaners suitable for engineers working on live equipment or those applications where flammability is a big safety issue. With low VOC content, the new range is a non-flammable mirror of existing, proven products, and features a Switch Cleaner Lubricant, a Contact Cleaner, a Flux Remover, and a Degreaser. All four products are available in 200ml aerosols for portability and convenience. The Switch Cleaner Lubricant deposits a fine protective film of high quality contact treatment oil to prevent arcing and corrosion, while the solvent from the remaining three products evaporates quickly, leaving no residue and eliminating wiping down and rinsing.The Contact Cleaner is a high-precision, non-conductive cleaner with high materials compatibility. A fast-drying solvent specially formulated for the quick and efficient cleaning of electrical equipment, it can be used on electrical contacts; tape heads; PCBs; components in electronic and video equipment; computers; optical and precision instruments; and cameras. Effective on no-clean fluxes, as well as many water-based fluxes and pastes, the Flux Remover exhibits rapid clean–ing and fast evaporation rates, while the Degreaser is versatile, non-corrosive and safe for use on all types of electrical circuits as well as more heavy duty cleaning applications.
